Documentation: Move "git diff <blob> <blob>"
The section describing "git diff <blob> <blob>" had been placed in a position that disrupted the statement "This is synonymous to the previous form". Reorder to place this form after all the <commit>-using forms, and the note applying to them. Also mention this form in the initial description paragraph.
